If anyone knows what Brett Favre might be thinking, it’s Peter King from Sports Illustrated.

And the Favre confidant today said “He’s done” when talking about the quarterback’s future.

Appearing on ESPN’s “Pardon the Interruption” this afternoon, King said of Favre, “I think he’s had enough (of playing).”

King said he last talked to Favre three weeks ago, before the Jets hired Rex Ryan as head coach.

King told “PTI” that Jets doctors suggested Favre have surgery on his torn right biceps tendon if he wants to play next season, and Favre has declined to have the surgery.

“That to me in part … was Brett basically saying, ‘No mas,'” King said.

But King added that he had “a gut feeling” Favre would seriously consider a return if he could somehow play for the Minnesota Vikings.

“If he’s not going to be able to play where he really wants to play, I think he’s not going to play,” the Favre mouthpiece told “PTI.”

Writing on SI.com, King said he believes Favre will retire because Woody Johnson wants the 39-year-old to participate in the Jets’ offseason program.

“You’re kidding yourself if you think he’s going to move back to New Jersey for 12 to 16 weeks in March. ‘I’ve never been in a [full] offseason program,’ Favre told me a month ago,” King writes.

King concluded: “What makes the most sense now is, sometime after the Super Bowl, Favre and the Jets having an amicable separation, and Favre retiring. This time for good. The Jets have a new coach and need to move on to a new future with Brett Ratliff, Kellen Clemens or a rookie quarterback of the next decade.”
